OpenLayers DjiGeozones

Displays DJI Geo Zones on an OpenLayers map. Also, you can add a Control Panel with map legends and selectors to change the drone and the levels to be shown.

The data is obtained directly from an undocumented DJI API. The official DJI Fly Safe Geo Zone Map that use the same data can be found here, and more information here.

Tested with OpenLayers version 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.

DISCLAIMER

Nowadays, DJI doesn't offer any API documentation, so future support and access to the data is uncertain. Furthermore, the API endpoint has CORS restrictions and the header Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors 'self' http://*.dji.com https://*.dji.com, so all browsers requests must be proxied.

Examples

All the examples are configured using a free Proxy. If you notice some lag or slow performance, try one of your own.

Basic usage: create an OpenLayers map instance, and pass that map and options to the DjiGeozones constructor.
- Full Panel
- Compact Panel

Usage

// Default options
let opt_options = {
    urlProxy: '',
    buffer: 10000, // to increase search zone (in meters)
    drone: 'spark', // See drone parameter in the DJI API section
    zonesMode: 'total', // See drone parameter in the DJI API section
    country: 'US', // See country parameter in the DJI API section
    showGeozoneIcons: true, // Display geozones icons
    displayLevels: [2, 6, 1, 0, 3, 4, 7], // Order is kept in the Control Panel
    activeLevels: [2, 6, 1, 0, 3, 4, 7],
    createPanel: 'full', // Create or not the control
    targetPanel: null, // Specify a target if you want the control to be rendered outside of the map's viewport.
    startCollapsed: false,
    startActive: true,
    dronesToDisplay: [], // By default, an array with all the drones
    extent: null,
    loadingElement:
        '<div class="lds-ellipsis"><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div></div>',
    clickEvent: 'singleclick',
    language: 'en',
    i18n: {}, // Create customized languages/texts. See i18n folder
    alert: null
};

// SETTING A REVERSE PROXY TO AVOID CORS
// For testing, you can run `chrome.exe --user-data-dir="C://Chrome dev session" --disable-web-security` to
// launch a Google Chrome instance with CORS disabled.
// This example uses allOrigins (https://github.com/gnuns/allOrigins), a free and open source javascript proxy.
// For production, deploy a custom instance or use yor own proxy.
opt_options.urlProxy = 'https://api.allorigins.win/raw?url=';

const djiGeozones = new DjiGeozones(opt_options);

map.addControl(djiGeozones); // or djiGeozones.setMap(map)

Methods

// Instance methods
// This methods clean the loaded features and fires a new API request.
djiGeozones.drone = 'spark';
djiGeozones.country = 'US'; // At the moment, this doesn't seem to affect the api response
djiGeozones.zonesMode = 'total';

djiGeozones.activeLevels = [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7]; // Set custom level values
djiGeozones.addLevels(5);
djiGeozones.removeLevels(7);

djiGeozones.setPanelVisible(true); // Show/hide the control panel
djiGeozones.setPanelCollapsed(true); // Collapse/expand the control panel

djiGeozones.hide(); // Hide the GeoZones and the map Control
djiGeozones.show(); // Show the GeoZones and the map Control

let layers = djiGeozones.layers; // array of ol/layer/Vector~VectorLayer instances
let layer = djiGeozones.getLayerByLevel(7); // returns an ol/layer/Vector~VectorLayer instance with the specefic level

Events

djiGeozones.once(`init`, () => console.log('Library is loaded'));
djiGeozones.on(`error`, () => console.log('An error ocurred'));

DJI API - What we know

Some considerations

The API doesn't accepts requests in large zoom levels (<9) aka search_radius, so the Geozones in the map are disabled in these zoom scales to manage this beahaivor.
The data returned by the API has some problems/strange behaviors:
- The elements in level 6 (Altitude Zones, grey color) are returning from the api with level 2 in the properties (Restricted Zones, red color), and the elements in level 4 (Regulatory Restricted Zones, light blue color) with level 7 (Recommended Zones, green color). This makes very messy the frontend, and make it impossible to filter these levels accordingly in each request. To avoid this problem, this module functions completely different from the official map: performs the API requests including all levels, distributing the results in differents layers according to each level, and filtering that manipulating the layers visibility (not by the API request).
See DjiApi API for parameters and details.
